Unless my memory betrays me like a venal cur with a kitchen-alley appointment and his ribs showing, yes, I believe Mistress Pincushion's litter of balloon-busting hoglets, the famous flavoured butter-bath, and also Slow-mo Solomon (a few feathers short of a whole duck) feature quite prominently in Maugham's masterpiece.

Cheers,
Marc

Aren't those 2AM runs fun? Hope he's out soon and back on the road to health.
They used to call those horses.

You haven't vented about the second voyage of the Chronophage, Pshrynk. Does this mean that all went well?

You wrote 'lieuse' instead of 'liseuse'. A 'lieuse' is a woman, or machine that ties up things.


Nautical terms are always colorful. A boat always sits in the water, like ducks...
Thwack!.... Missed!
